I did two-piece stoptech rotors on my Viper. The solid rotors on those were 27lbs each wheel. The stoptech rotors are around 17.x lbs each. So I saved 10lbs per wheel, its a huge difference in rotating mass. I improve my MPG, not kidding and feels a lot more agile having lost that weight. The car isnt working as hard to rotate all 4 wheels!!!

Pros: significant weight saving, improved agility, better MPG
Vehicle: Dodge Viper

Full ATE PowerDisc and Ceramic pad brake overhaul done today - I’ve run these discs & pads a few times now on previous E39s inc. both my Jap import E39s and they’re superb.

Excellent bite from the off / cold and little to no dust.

Pros: Excellent bite, little dust

STOPTECH Brake discs

I used StopTech slotted rotors (not drilled and slotted) and semi-metallic pads on my 2006 Lexus GX470. Obviously I've changed the brake pads a few times but after 200K miles (yes, that many) my rotors are still in excellent shape. I will not buy anything else, ever

Pros: rotors still in shape
Vehicle: Lexus
Mileage: 321869 km

My experience with my 2015 - non-PP - is that the pads are about the worst that I have ever experienced. Material transfer on the front rotors was a constant problem...this stopping from 75 mph at the bottom of a long highway ramp...the pulsating changed in sync with how hot the day was and how hard I was using the brakes...I do not drive this car hard. I replaced everything.

Pros: replaced everything
Cons: material transfer, constant problem
Vehicle: Volkswagen
